village on the Park not suitable.

Village on the Park was not acceptable to us as they wanted us to bend to their schedule and we preceded to have them bend to ours.

Their food was baseless and uninspired so we are out every night. Their help were pleasant and mind but we're hampered by restritions.

We spent two weeks there and that was 10 days to long.

Very clean and nice facility. The staff was very professional and attentive. Overall, I had a very positive impression from my visit. Only negative was that this facility does not take medicaid.

My mother is very comfortable at this location. She is happy that the people there are friendly, they are very inclusive, and has been very inviting. Her big interest with their activities that they provide is the bridge group. They are very active and they have been trying to get her to play, but as of now she is still occupied with settling into her apartment and getting everything the way she wants it. They have trips to go shopping at outlet malls and she had made some friends there. Most people there tend to be from Houston, but my mother moved from out of state. They all have been very welcoming and they offered to be her co-pilot for her to be familiar with the area. She is very active for her age. What I have also seen is that they have other trips that are more tailored for men. A lot of men there are retired engineers or mechanics so they have trips to places like Transtar where it is a place that monitors the entire traffic cameras. So it’s give my mother some variety and different choices opposed to just be talking about feminine stuff all the time like shopping. I already have been recommending this property to other families.

I really liked the community. Seems to be a hidden gem. Residents were moving about with ease and grace. One bedrooms in main bldg do not have washer/dryer in the units. That might be a deal breaker for my MIL

The main reason i had chose this community for my mother to live in was the fact that it was a single level building and a very peaceful environment. I also like the fact that they have a menu available to the residents throughout the day so if they don't make it down to meal time they will still be able to get something to eat. They have a great activity program available throughout the week as well. Overall I am pleased with how things are going.

I have no complaints about this property, the staff was very kind and the building was very well maintained. All of the staff was very welcoming during our tour and gave my loved one and I lots of useful information. The only thing I did not care for was how close to traffic this location was.

Not worth the money

My mother has been in the Memory Care section for about a year. Most of the staff are friendly and helpful (I certainly couldn't do that job), but that’s about the best thing I can say.

The activities calendar is a joke. The food is dismal, unappetizing and not nutritious. Supplies are consumed at an unbelievable rate (1 gallon of laundry detergent and 75 bed pads in one week). Clothes/sheets/towels are frequently lost.

“I don’t know” is generally the answer to most of my questions. Staff turnover is high; every time I visit there is a new person and someone else is gone.

I expected a higher level of professionalism and service for $4,800/month. I'm sure there are worst places than this, but there are probably better places for the money.

Met with my mother for lunch at the Village. She is happy here, and enjoys the food. She especially needed this type of arrangement, as she had lost sixteen pounds living alone, and cooking for herself.

The staff are friendly and everything has a positive atmosphere. She seems to like the activities, and has joined in on those that are of interest to her.

We really enjoyed our tour of the facilities.The layout is on 16 acres, all one level. We put our name on the waiting list, ($$ required), for a cottage. A golf cart would be a good thing to have here.

O.K. so far except for an unresolved phone problem.

Have only been here a short time. All seems well for now, but there is an ongoing problem with the in-house landline telephone system in that there is activity on the line when the phone is not in use and busy signals, sounds of a phone being dialed, and no dial tone occur at times when the phone is in use. My telephone service/installer has checked my phone twice, replaced phone jacks, and concurs that the problem is related to the facility's phone system.

It takes a Village to raise a Senior!

Love this place for my Dad. Old people just seem to find something to grumble about no matter where they live. The big complaint here though is legitimate, cold food! The food may be good but when it's cold YUCK! It doesn't matter who you talk to they seem to think they have to live with it since they have complained but it hasn't changed. When you pay almost $3,000.00 to live somewhere it is not unreasonable to expect hot food. The people and staff are so friendly and the grounds and common areas so beautiful. The holiday decorations from fall on were wonderful.There are so many activities, there is always something to choose to participate in.If they fix the food issue and once the hallway lights are upgraded, which is on the agenda, this place will be even better!

Village on the Park at Steeplechase is a very nice place. Nice apartment, nice grounds, and very nice and helpful people. It is very spacious, has nice parking and a garage.

The first week there was an issue with a smell in the apartment (something in the wall) but they came out and fixed it. So any time there are any issues, they are quick to assist. We have been very pleased and would recommend them.

Like living at home

Its like living in a little neighborhood. Each cottage is yours to make it like your own. I was able to have my Sheltie named "Lady". I do not feel like I had to give up anything. The rooms are very spacious. All my children and friends are amazed at how cute the place has turned out to be. One of the ladies I met said you could do something every day if you wanted. I thank my Heavenly Father for all good things.

The staff were very nice and informative. The area seemed to be a bit run down.

Thank you so much for your review! The Steeplechase subdivision has recently underwent a makeover! Many of the surrounding neighborhoods now feature walking paths, parks and much more. We hope you take the time to come back soon and see all of the great improvements that have happened.

very pleased with the care and positive environment

My mother began her stay briefly at the independent living apt but became ill and after a lengthly hospital and skilled nursing stay she was able to return to VOP but to the Memory care as we waited for assisted living to become available. The staff was most supportive of us through this process. We decided it best to keep her in the memory care where she is very happy and receiving the attention and care that she needs. My mother was one of the first residents of the memory care. It seems that with the growth, VOP is taking the steps to maintain the personal care she has received in the past. She receives loving attention and the staff is very receptive to us, the family with any questions and concerns we have. The best critique I can offer is that my mother seems happy and secure and always happy to return after we, the family have an outing with her. The staff is very good at getting the residents involved in activities and visiting among themselves.

My mother and father have been at the Village on the Park for only a month. They were very good at assessing my mothers needs an following through. The community is very very clean and staff are excellent and very friendly. They are very attentive and greet me with a smile, and address any concerns with me before i visit them. My dad has enjoyed some of the activities there, especially when the men's group went out to a restaurant. My mom and dad have a lot of good things to say about the food.

If I ever get to that point, this is where I am going.

The staff is very friendly, I would give them a six out of five. They are expanding and opening a memory care and Alzheimers. She does not like the food, it's maybe a two, I think other people there would say it's a four, but she doesn't like she thinks it's a little bland. If I ever get to that point, this is where I am going. It's a beautiful place and looks brand new, it's kept up beautifully. The people are really able to be independent and there are some very happy people over there.

Super Nice!

They were super super nice. The cottages were great. It really depends on what you need and what you're looking for. I thought this was a really really good facility. They had a mixture of people which was good an they are pet friendly.

Super attentive staff

I might have toured 50 or so properties, ultimately my mom was drawn to the Village on the Park's concept, more of a traditional home. This was not my first choice, but it was hers. The food is good and the staff is super attentive. There hasn't been enough time to rate their Care Services yet.

This place is very nice. It says it is a cruise ship on land and it really is. The food was wonderful. Everybody was very nice. The cottages were great. The only thing about this one is that it is really above my money.

Was nice, saw a lot of residents out and about. The cottages are not for Mom too far removed and she would have to drive a golf cart to get to meals. They are a single level facility, but that also means a lot of walking to get to meals and activities. Liked the small patio where I could do flowers, bird bath and bird feeder for her. They have their own safety pendant system. They have the "safety button" to check in each day. They do not have set eating times, they serve 3 meals a day, you can eat anytime during the hours of 7 - 6.
